        The SPALM Software Factory focusses on the implementation of SharePoint Application together with Team Foundation Server.</p> 
        <h3>Available Recipes</h3>
        Find a list of all available recipes in the <a href="RecipeIndex.htm">Recipe Index</a>.
        <h3>WSPBuilder integration</h3>
        As we see that WSPBuilder is widely used in the community to create WSP files we are supporting and using the following concepts of WSPBuilder:<br />
        <ol>
            <li>The creation of WSP-Files is done with the command line WSPBuilder. You can download the current release here.</li>
            <li>The software factory creates artefacts with the same project structure as WSPBuilder. Therefore it is possible, to use the WSPBuilder Extension templates in parallel with the SPALM software factory.</li>
        </ol>
        <br />
